Apparently i became a witch...

[Nuggs]

I had a event happen where one of my knights who was my guardian at the time that i found out was a witch. i took the option of tell me everything in which i guess turned me into a witch as well. however, i dont see it anywhere on my character screen that says im a witch. am i just looking in the wrong place? id assume theres a place that says im a witch and other secrets i may have. I only knew i became a witch because i had an option to convince my wife to also become a witch.

it should be one of those little icons bellow the main traits part. Hover over them and one should say witch.

If you become a witch you normally do it in secret. Therefore it doesn't show on your profile unless revealed. Same with other sins like murderer etc. I think you can still see your secrets in the intrigue menu.

It starts off as a secret, like adultery. Personally I prefer to expose myself so people don't try to blackmail me and other witches get an opinion boost from me.

Witchcraft is extremely powerful. In addition to doing what it says on the tin with all the passive bonuses, you get to hold a grand rite every 5 years and gain a random skill point. Really makes for strong jack of all trades type characters if you live a long time.

But there's more. All of the witches in your coven will join in your assassination attempts if you're trying to assassinate somebody at your court. So if you use Convert Witchcraft instead of Sway over the years you'll have agents spread out all throughout your vassals' courts. You can also use the Witchraft effectively as a Sway at the same time. Witches have a +20 opinion boost for each other, so if you expose someone and grant them a pardon it'll net you like +25 opinion, depending on whether or not they have Shy or whatever.

You can also use Witchcraft offensively against Clan governments. Clans depend on vassal opinion much more than Feudals, so if you are able to convert a Muslim ruler and then expose them it destroys their relationships and inevitably leads to rebellion. I like to think of it as placing a type of curse on them, a sort of "deal with the devil" type trope which obviously backfires like it does in all the movies.
